The Team You'll Work With

We are looking for an Executive Assistant (EA) to join our team and support our Chief Financial Officer and SVP of Finance. This person will be part of a centralized EA team, reporting to the Director of Brand & Operations for the Office of the CEO, and will work closely with the EA team, the Finance team, and the broader leadership team at Carta.

Carta's EA team is small and wears many hats.

We operate within a hybrid model, with team members based in offices across New York, Sandy, and San Francisco.

You are incredibly detail oriented,thoughtful, strategic, and proactive. You can block and tackle for your Executive and navigate ambiguity. You know how to find common ground with leadership and peers alike to build relationships. You are professional and eager to learn about the business, and collaborate with fellow EAs on impactful projects.

We believe you will be successful in this role if you have:

  • 7+ years of Executive Assistant experience supporting a senior leader in the C-suite, preferably in the technology or banking industry
  • Experience coordinating board and audit committee meetings
  • Heavy calendar management and international travel coordination experience
  • Ability to effectively multitask and prioritize on a daily basis
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to commute to our SF office3 days per week (required)
